I could park my car near the meadow on where my Geohash lays. A few steps in it and I was there. The tricky thing was, that I have only the position marked virtually on the "shotgun"map. No coordinates. So I walked around and looked at the other map to make it as close as possible. I screenshoted a few coordinates of my position with the geocaching app as proof.

This retro geohash is located on a meadow near Niederneunforn (ZH), Switzerland.

Participants

Plans

To drive to the origin geohash coordinates on my current birthday (19.02.2024) before work in the morning. And on the way there first to warm up make a stop here in Niederneunforn for this retro geohash.

Expedition

Yes, today it's my birthday! (I mean the date of the expedition)

Some time ago I created a nice round of various retro hashes near my origin birthday geohash. And today was the day... But unfortunately there wasn't enough time for everything... I just limited myself to one additional geohash today. I visited this first on the way. It was here in Niederneunforn.

I could park my car near the meadow on where my Geohash lays. A few steps in it and I was there. The tricky thing was, that I have only the position marked virtually on the "shotgun"map. No coordinates (I couldn't remember the date for this retro geohash). So I walked around and looked at the other map to make it as close as possible. I screenshoted a few coordinates of my position with the geocaching app as proof.

Now, when I report this expedition, I calculated the distance between the exact position and my sceenshots from the geocaching app... And tadaaaaa: I was close enough to make a success: 2.5m !
